Princess Diana: Prince Charles' bride had two bouquets at her wedding thanks to the Queen

He revealed on ITV programme Invitation to the Royal Wedding: “If we go back to the Queen’s wedding in 1947, when you look at the state photographs of all the bridesmaids and royal guests – there’s the Queen without a bouquet.

“It got lost, so in the middle of their honeymoon, they had to get dressed up again in their wedding clothes and my father had to provide another bouquet for those photographs.

“Now, it’s the tradition to make two bouquets so that doesn’t happen again.”
